Good points. I'm not into rusted firearms. Even in the apocalypse they would be too valuable to allow to get that way. The Sterling is from a near future/post apocalyptic type scenario. The "rust" is actually dust and the stencils.... Well everyone puts stencils on things during the apocalypse. Don't they?

Second ARP9 finished in a Deadpool theme. The first one sold so fast we were asked to do a second.
My favourite ARP9 so far. Finished in a Borderlands theme with custom Nerf scope to add a bit if "Sci fi"
